One of the great things about having our new bakery is that we are also going to have our very own organic vegetable and herb garden! We made big strides yesterday towards installing our beds and getting things growing. Many thanks to all the great folks over at Farmer D Organics who got us going and answered all of our questions! If you haven't been over to their store at 2154 Briarcliff Rd, go soon! They have a great selection of organic plants, seeds, compost, and even vegan fertilizer.

Yesterday we planted a lot of awesome veggies, including three types of heirloom tomatoes, some peppers, squash, and zucchini. We also got a start on our herbs and accented the beds with edible marigolds. We will also be growing a number of vegetables and melons from seeds, so very soon our garden will be full of growing plants!

We will post more photos of our garden as things start to sprout and grow. We will also continue to post updates on the store as our opening gets closer, so stay tuned!
